The Allstate Sugar Bowl Fan Jam features fun and family-friendly performers. Last year’s entertainment for Fan Jam was the popular Louisiana band MoJeaux. Originated in 2007, eight of the state’s most talented musicians joined together to form MoJeaux, one of the South’s most diverse and energetic bands. Whether it’s R&B, Motown, Oldies, Top 40, Rock, Hip Hop, Funk, Disco or anything in between, MoJeaux excites audiences of all ages.

The AlleyCats have also performed at the event. They were established in 1990 with the vision of forming a premier high-energy variety dance band covering top hits ranging from the 1940’s thru the most current hits. They have become one of the most exciting variety bands in the Gulf South. While The AlleyCats take the stage with music that is precise and pleasing to the ear, the band offers a visual entertainment presentation second to none.
